Where The Spirit of the Lord Is Pt 2
In this sermon we begin a deep exploration into the person and work of the Holy Spirit. Starting with the foundational text of 2 Corinthians 3:17, "where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty," we seek to move past common misunderstandings of the Holy Spirit as an impersonal force or a paranormal entity.
This message focuses on one of the first and most vital ways the Spirit works in our lives: conviction. We examine the critical difference between the Spirit's conviction, which is a gift designed to lovingly reveal our sin and draw us back to God, and the devil's condemnation, which aims to make us feel worthless and hopeless. Using the powerful story of David and the prophet Nathan, we illustrate how a heart that is right with God responds to conviction not with anger or by running away, but with genuine repentance. This sermon lays the groundwork for understanding how a relationship with the Holy Spirit is essential for every believer who desires to stand firm and live in the fullness of what God has for them.
